[quote=Anonymous]I’m pretty direct so would tell her “Larla- it isn’t polite to brag. It is rude and can hurt people’s feelings. Eventually, it will make people dislike you. You are 7 now and really need to work on this” . You could also add some relatable examples- surely there is something she is not good at (struggled to learn to swim or ride a bike maybe). Ask her how she would feel if a friend bragged obnoxiously about that while she was struggling- and also remind that everyone has strengths and weaknesses. And then remind every time. “Larla- remember? It isn’t polite to brag” If that seems harsh….well, best to fix it now before it starts hurting her socially. I’d argue it is best for her- and the kind thing to do- to nip this in the bud now. People like this are so incredibly obnoxious and difficult to be around. [/quote]
